adjacent to Clough Pike.Dyer said construction of the

road will necessitate removal ofsome of the baseball diamond andtether ball courts, but should notaffect the soccer fields.

Trustees hired LauraBassett, who was thetownship’s part-time ac-counting clerk, for theposition.

Thecodeviolationsof-ficer position had beenvacant since Marchwhen Harold (Tub) Max-

son resigned, said town-ship Administrator Da-vid Elmer.

Since thenBassett hasbeen providing generaladministrative supportto Tim Hershner, thetownship’s assistant ad-ministrator for planning,zoning and communitydevelopment.

“The fact that she haddemonstrated her skillsand abilities in housesuggested we had theright person, it was theright time, and financial-ly, itworksforus,”Elmersaid.

UNION TWP — . TheWest Clermont LocalSchool District has ad-justed its costs for onlinecoursework.

In the case of individ-ual courses, a flat fee of$200 will be charged forindividual courses dur-ing the 2013-2014 schoolyear.Lastyearpricespercourse ranged from $170to $220.

However, the mostsignificant change willbe the cost for enroll-ment in the district’s Vir-tualAcademy,whichpro-vides students with anopportunity to take all oftheir coursework online.

“Full time” enroll-ment in the West Cler-mont Virtual Academywill now be free ofcharge.

Thepreviouscost forfull-timeenroll-ment intheVirtualAcademywas $380for the

school year.“The fee has priced us

out,” said Superinten-dent Keith Kline. “This(revised fee) puts us on asimilar price structure(with other districts).

“We would like towaive fees to be compet-itive and keep the WestClermont students.”

Kline said about 180West Clermont studentshave enrolled in the “Vir-tual Academy for 2012-2013.”

“If we keep the kids,we’ll recoup the money,”said school board mem-

ber De-niseSmith.“It’s a win-win for us,the dis-trict andthe kids.”

Therecom-

mendation to adjust theonline feeswas approvedby the school board dur-ing its August meeting.

BATAVIA TWP. — A re-cent salt purchase meanssavings for township tax-payers.

During its Augustmeeting, the BataviaTownship Trustees ap-proved a bid on salt for2013-2014.

Service Director Ken-neth Embry said the costwill be $48.19 per ton. Em-bry said this is cheaperthan last year when thecost per ton was $69.50.

“It’s a necessary ex-pense,” said Township Ad-ministrator Rex Parsons.

“(Howev-er) anytime youcan get itcheaper it’slike seeinggas on sale.

“It’s agood thingto save the

residents in the communi-ty somemoney.”

Batavia Township getsits salt through a coopera-tive purchasing agree-mentwhich involvesothermunicipalities.Asaresult,Embry said higher quanti-tiesofsaltcanbeboughtata cheaper price.

The contract iswith the

NorthAmericanSaltCom-pany, which the townshiphad as its supplier lastyear.

Embry said the town-ship contracted for 750tons of salt for 2013-2014.

Last year, Embry saidthe township bid out for1,000tonsofsaltandendedup using about 600 tons.

BATAVIA TWP. — Whenthe first group ofUCCler-mont College students toearn the school’s newbachelor’s degree in tech-

nical and applied studiesgraduated this past springthey weren’t interested inbackslapping each otherover their historicachievement.

The students werelooking ahead.

TheClassof2013raised$2,305 in scholarshipmon-ey for first- or second-year, full-time studentspursuing the fledglingtwo-year degree in the ap-plied administration pro-gram at the college in Ba-

tavia Township.“This tradition began

after having heard a pres-entation from the formerdirector of development,Meredith Delaney, aboutwhat students could do togive back,” said Penny

Rhoades of Georgetown,who earned the new bach-elor’s degree in technicaland applied studies inApril.

“Our class felt it wasimportant to give back tothe school that had givenus so much and we had adesire to help support oth-er students who followedin our footsteps and en-rolled in this new pro-gram.”

UC Clermont Collegeand UC Blue Ash Collegebegan offering the newbachelor’s degree in fall2011.

The degree is designedtohelppeoplewhowork inthe technology field andwho already hold an asso-ciatedegree inappliedsci-ence or applied businessfrom a regionally accred-ited institution to advance.

There are courses inteam building, project fa-

cilitation, finance man-agement, workplace eth-ics, human-resource prac-tices, applied statistics,employment law, employ-ee supervision and leader-ship.

“It’s an ideal opportuni-ty to take the next step inyour professional careerby fulfilling the course re-quirements necessary tocomplete a bachelor’s de-gree – giving you the edgetomove into a supervisoryor administrative posi-tion,” said Kathie Coope-r,an adviser for studentsworking to earn a bache-lor’s degree in the appliedadministration division atUC Clermont College.

As I’ve mentionedbefore, I know when arecipe hits a chord withreaders by the amount of

response itgenerateslong afterit’s pub-lished.This isparticular-ly true ofseasonalrecipes,like roast-ed toma-toes.

This recipe is slightlydifferent from one Ishared last year. Toma-toes are in season rightnow and the homegrown/best are abundant atfarmers’ markets.

As for me, my toma-toes are the best I’ve evergrown and since most ofthem are the indetermi-nate type, they keep bear-ing all season long. I’mnot even begrudging thegroundhogs eating theirshare, there’s that many!When I do find veggiesand fruit that have beenbitten into byMotherNature’s clan, I just cutthem up and feed them tomy girls (my chickens).They make a quick mealof them,

Tomatoes are full oflycopene, which is goodfor our hearts, men’sprostates and our im-mune system. Plus theyellow and orange toma-toes have just as muchnutrition as their redcounterparts.

Roasted regular-sizetomatoes withherbs (or not)

Preheat oven to 400-425 degrees. Cut toma-toes in half. Lay eithercut side up or down (Ilaid mine cut side downbut next time will laythem cut side up since Ithink that will keep moreof the tomato flavor in).Drizzle with olive oil and

sprinkle on any herbs youlike – basil, thyme, rose-mary all work well. Butbe sure and chop them upfine. I also like to add saltand pepper. Roast untilskins start to look spottyif you are roasting skinside up. Otherwise, roastuntil tomatoes look wrin-kled and are soft.

Let cool and, if youlike, remove skins. Thefirst time I made them Ididn’t remove the skins,but when I used them incooked dishes they werea little tough. My sugges-tion is to remove them orput them in the blenderor food processor and theskins will process smallenough. You will wind upwith more of a puree ifyou put them through theblender or food proces-sor, but the bonus is youget the nutritious bene-fits of the skin. Freeze indesired quantities.

Roasted cherrytomatoes withherbs and garlic

Quality education important to communityExcitement is growing as

the start of a new school yearapproaches. Buildings areready and teachers have beenworking hard to make this aspecial year. All we need arestudents!

Since the Board of Educa-tion appointed me superinten-dent this past February, wehave been working hard onfinding ways to improve educa-tion in West Clermont.

After listening to our par-ents, community, teachers andstudents, we have looked close-ly at how we do business and

made changesthat will assurewe are provid-ing a qualityeducation in afiscally re-sponsible man-ner.

The pastfive months,we have spentsignificanttime looking at

five areas: making sure ourstudents and staff can work inan environment that is safe,secure and inviting, retooling

our instructional program tobetter prepare our students fortheir future, improving ourcommunication with all stake-holders, developing a plan tostabilize the district’s finances,and building trust throughouttheWest Clermont community.

We have heard loud andclear that providing a qualityeducation in a fiscally respon-sible manner is important toour community.

Through numerous con-versations, listening sessionsand public forums, you havetold us that a quality education

includes art, music, PE andlibrary services for our ele-mentary students, program-ming that offers kindergartenon a daily basis, the return ofas much transportation as pos-sible, and increased program-ming at the secondary levelthat assures our graduatesleaveWest Clermont collegeand/or career ready.

In order to protect what wecurrently have and restorewhat it takes to provide a qual-ity education, the Board ofEducation has placed a 5.8-milllevy on the ballot in November.

I would encourage you tovisit our website for moreinformation about our plansand what is needed to meet theexpectations our communityhas set.

If you have questions orcomments, please feel free toclick on the “Talk to Us” tab onour website or email me [email protected].

There is much to do—let’sget started!

KeithKlineCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

Editor’s note: This column isin response to our July 31Ch@troom question asking“Should school districts adopt apolicy to allow trained andqualified principals and otherschool officials to carry loaded

handguns inschools like theEdgewoodschool dis-trict?”

I was pleas-antly surprisedby the amountof people infavor of arm-ing teachers.The peoplethat areagainst this are

the ones that scare me.K.L.S.; Put a police officer in

every school. OK. Who is goingto pay that officer? The policeare paid to patrol the streets,not schools.

E.E.C.: You are completelyignorant of any facts related toguns and crime. A recentlyreleased FBI report shows thatas guns laws have been relaxedover the past 40 years, violentcrime, as a whole, has gonedown.

You say that guns need to betaken away from all Americansand that the Constitution needsto be changed (amended). Youknow who else supported dis-

arming law-abiding citizens?Hitler and Stalin.

Criminals will not turn intheir illegal guns just because alaw was passed. Disarming mewill not make me safer.

If you ever found yourself ina position where you wereabout to murdered by a crimi-nal in that instant you’d tradeall of your possessions for agun. If that threat were to yourchild or grandchild you’d sellyour soul for a gun.

Could you live with yourself,knowing that you could havesaved a life, but you were toomuch of a coward to carry agun? Guns don’t kill, they areinanimate objects. People kill.

Dave D; Teachers will haveto go through much more train-ing than the average CCW per-mit holder. Go check out TDI’s(Tactical Defense Institue)website. Educate yourself be-fore you say things that areblatant lies.

N.F.: There are so manythings wrong with your replythat I don’t know where tostart. Your 98 percent statisticis a blatant lie. History hasproven that more guns in thehands of the law-abiding citi-zens equals less crime. That isa fact.

It is not obvious that armingteachers will result in moreschool shootings, that is anoth-

er blatantly false statementbased on emotion and igno-rance with NOTHING to backit up.

Since Ohio passed, andamended, its CCW law thestreets have not run red withblood. There has not beenshootouts over parking spots ortraffic accidents. In short, theworst case scenario predictedby the anti-gun groups simplynot have not come true.

Two times in the last 20years I’ve been in situationswhere a gun could havestopped the crime or leveledthe playing field. I have a per-manent reminder of one ofthose attack, a scar through myright eyebrow.

My right to self preservationtrumps any criminals rights. Ifa criminal physically assaultsme or threatens the life of meor my family his rights cease toexist and I have a right to de-fend myself with deadly forceif necessary. That is a basichuman right that can not betaken away by any govern-ment.

In closing, me and my gunsare no threat to you, unless youare a criminal intent on causingme or my family harm or youare have broken into my house.

Not arming teachers iswhat really scares me

Remember those whodidn’t listen to residents

On July 29, 2013, the WestClermont school board votedto put on the ballot in the fall a5.8-mill levy.

All were in agreement ex-cept one, Tina Sanborn.

The following is me para-phrasing: Jo Ann Beamer saidthat when she leaves tonightshe would still be Jo AnnBeamer; right now she repre-sented the school board.

She said that she was verydisappointed that they did nothave consensus on this voteandvoicedherdisappointmentin her fellow school boardmember Tina Sanborn, whilethe other school board mem-bers sat there like bobble-headdolls nodding in agreement.

We elected them to think forthemselves and tovote thewaytheir intellect tells them tovote, notplay follow the leader.

Remember when the school

board voted to move the insidemillage over with no consider-ation forwhat the people in thecommunity wanted or couldafford?

We stood in a crowded roomfor two hours voicing our op-position which fell on deafears.

Remember this in Novem-ber when you vote; one thatvoted for the inside millage,Denise Smith, will be on theballot.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Last week’s questionShould U.S. lawmakers and

their staffs continue to receivea federal contribution towardthe health insurance that theymust purchase through soon-to-open exchanges created byPresident Barack Obama’s sig-nature healthcare law to pre-vent the largely unintendedloss of healthcare benefits for535 members of the Senateand House of Representativesand thousands of Capitol Hillstaff. Why or why not?

“Yes. Everyone scheduledto receive a contributionfrom employers should stillreceive that contribution, nomatter for whom they work.

“If the conservatives andObama-haters would justgive it a chance they’d see allthe good that the AffordableCare Act can accomplish in-stead of trying to repeal it 40more times in Congress.

“It’s meant to help thepoor and uninsured just likethe New Deal back 70-oddyears ago during the GreatDepression.”

TRog

“Although itwould be niceif making lawmakers pay fortheir own health care wouldbring their attention to theplight of most Americans,the cost of their personal in-surance is chump changecompared to the campaigncontributions they get fromthe special interests in themedical field.

“Since Citizen’s Unitedit’s a free-for-all for rich in-dividuals and corporations.The only thing holding someof the worst of them back isthe sheer impracticality ofmost of their ideas.

“What would work betteris if more citizen voterswould pay more attention tohow some of these creeps inColumbus and Washingtonvote, and give them unlimit-ed vacation time at the nextelection.

“Unfortunately with themedia breaking into venues,which allow people to get thenews theywant as opposed tothe news that is actuallytrue, we’re going to have anuphill battle getting any sortof consensus on publichealth in our nation.

“Fortunately, the Afford-able Care Act is already cut-ting costs formany of us, andeven if it doesn’t solve thebigger problems it will setthe stage for continued dia-logue.”

N.F.

“Kind of a moot question.The Congress will do what-ever is best for them and not

what is best for the Ameri-can people. Period.”

J.Z.

“The Democrats yes, theRepublicans no! Seriously,whether its health care or re-tirement, governmentshould not be allowed to voteits own members and staffbetter benefits than thoseavailable to the rest of thepopulation.

“A single term in congressshouldn’t entitle you to any-thing more than Cobra bene-fits while you look for newemployment. If ex membersof government had to sur-vive on Medicare or Medi-caid and Social Securitythose would be good pro-grams, and yes, we all mighthave to contribute a bit moreto ensure their long-term fu-ture.”

D.R.

“If these people are al-ready receiving a contribu-tion from the government(their employer) it shouldcontinue. If this means theywill not have to get Obama-care like the rest of us –shame on them!

“We should all be in thisboat together. That way ifand when it starts to sinkthey’ll have an incentive tofix or replace it.”

R.V.

“Of course not! But thisrodeo clown has set a newstandard of picking winnersand losers for political rea-sons, paybacks for contrib-utors and favors to his base.

“Large corporations,unions and the IRS and nowlawmakers are getting spe-cial exemptions from this di-sasterous law. Most hardworking Americans are notsurprised by a good screw-ing from the federal govern-ment, but unfairness to thisdegree creates tremendousanger and animosity.

“When is the last time yousaid: ‘Wow, this will be great’when you heard of a new lawor government program??”

UNION TWP. — Veteran expe-rience is a luxury not everycoach has, but it’s one the GlenEste Trojans can claim in 2013.

Coach Nick Ayers returns 18starters, 14 of whom are sen-iors, and 28 letter-winners over-all. Those players come from a4-6 teamthatwas3-3 in theECC,tying Loveland and Andersonfor third.

“This senior year class andthe team camaraderie and bond

thesekidshave isunbelievable,”Ayers said. “Westarted in De-cember doingteam activities.We locked themin the school onenight and havedone severalthings with them

to create that bond. Those kidshave taken the next step.”

The offense is slated to be ahybrid pistol/Wing T as the Tro-jans look to be more elusive.The top returning runner is sen-ior Jordan Harris, who pickedup 846 yards and four touch-downs as a junior. He finishedsecond-teamECCand averaged5.4 yards per carry.

“He’s a grinder and a hardrunner,” Ayers said.

At presstime, Ayers was de-cidingoneitherTylerPilcher orMcNicholas transfer JackSchmidt as quarterback toboost Glen Este back over the.500 mark. Hiking the ball toboth is senior Jake Simon.

“I think our defense is verygood,”Ayers said. “Offensively,we’reputtingsomenewstuff in.If we coach well, we’re going to

be successful. We have the kidsin place, we have the tools to dowell, so we’re looking forwardto that.”

Much of Glen Este’s intensi-tycomesondefense, ledbyECCfirst-team linebacker TylerBurdick. Also an accomplishedbaseball player, he has offers inboth sports.

“He is an unbelievable kid,”Ayers said. “Hedoes a great joband does everything you ask ofhim. He’s 150 miles an hour. Hedoes pre-practice so hard thathe exhausts himself. He’s get-ting letters from all over.”

Also back defensively areseniors Kyel Keszei and TylerFlaniganandjuniorPeytonBur-dick. Keszei and Flanigan weresecond team all-league, with

Peyton Burdick making honor-able mention.

“Our numbers are at 60 or61,” Ayers said. “With the situa-tion we’re in with the pay toplay, we’re ready to go.”

Glen Este’s out-of-confer-enceschedule is aggressive thisfall with Amelia at home androad games at Lakota West,Mount Healthy and WintonWoods.

Then, there’s the ECC, whichis far from a picnic.

“Every kid is the same,”Ayers said. “We’ve all got thesame kids. We’ve got multiple-sport athletes, kids that arecommitted to football andweallgo through the same issues.There’s a lot of parity in theleague.”

AMELIA — Starting his fifthyear off of Clough Pike, Ameliafootball coach Randy Hospel-horn is trying to get his squadover the proverbial hump.

Last season, theBaronswere4-6 and prior to that they’ve fin-ished 5-5.

“Our numbers are down, butthe kids we have show a greatattitude,” Hospelhorn said.“They’re a lot more focused onaccomplishing something.

They haven’t hada winning recordsince ‘98 andthey’re focusedon changingthat.”

Borrowingfrom a popular1970s George Lu-cas film, the Bar-ons are hanging

their helmets on their “Dark-sideDefense.”Thegroup ledbylinebackers Carter Hounshell,Sean Stewart and defensivelinemen Cohen Cantor and T.J.Reed where practice jerseysdisplaying theirDarthVader in-fluence.

“At times, we look like weknow what we’re doing,” Hos-pelhorn said.

Minus graduated quarter-back Gabe Weaver, the signal-calling will fall between theaforementioned Stewart, TyNi-codemus or 6-foot-3 freshmanspecimen Cage Meyer.

“Ty (Nicodemus) stepped infor us last year when our quar-terback went down,” Hospel-horn said. “The offense will besimilar towhatwe ran last year.We’re in the pistol spread. Wedo a lot of running and a lot of

passing. We do what we have todo.”

When they do run, expectfullback T.J. Troxel or seniorJake Miller to tote the loaf.

“I’m looking for some goodthings from some of our youngguys,” Hospelhorn said. “JakeMiller had a good offseason. Headded a lot to his bench and gota lot stronger. I expect him tohave a really good season.”

Healso expects theSouthernBuckeye Conference scheduleto be challenging week in andweek out.

“Any Friday night, like theyalways say,” Hospelhorn said.“All the teams are pretty good.You always expect WesternBrown, Goshen and New Rich-mond to be really tough. Bata-via, Bethel-Tate, Norwood -they’re all good games.”

BATAVIA—TheBataviaBull-dogs football team had a histor-ic 2012, going undefeated in theregular season and winning theprogram’s first-ever playoffgame.

While head coach Don Sizergraduated 14 seniors from thatsquad – and has only six seniorson the roster this season – hesaid there’s no reason Bataviacan’t have another good year.

“I would say we are reload-ing,” he said. “I think the mostimportant thingwasfor thekidsto taste that playoff success.Theyknowwhat it’s like, the ex-tra attention they got. Theyknow all the work it took to getthere and theywant togoback.”

Sizer relied on his assistants– Caleb Corrill, Chad Ward andMatt Gottis – to run most of theoff-season strength and condi-tioning programs. All agreedthe Bulldogs benefited fromtheir efforts.

From a players’ standpoint,KeShawn Foley returns for hisjunior season at quarterback -the focal point of one of area’sfew non-spread offenses – inBatavia’s Wing-T scheme.

Four-year starting centerWyatt Jackson anchors the of-fensive line that will protecthim. Senior Romelo Williams

moves to the interior line afterplaying tight end last season.Also up front are seniors ZachSchmidt and Austin Neal, alongwith junior Cole Norman.

Juniors Tony Gatto and SeanHill return at running back.Senior three-year starter LeviSellars leads a receiving corpsthat also includes junior ConnGerrard.

A group of sophomores – all-purpose back Shawn Howell,tight end Shawn Adams, run-ning backs Dylan Wagner andSammyHumbertandkicker/re-ceiver Joe Sickles – should seesignificant playing time.

“We need some leadership,”Sizer said. “I knowwehave a loton the team, but we’re waitingfor them to assert themselvesthat way. The young guys arefilling into the spots really suc-cessfully. I don’t want to saywe’re surprised, but they areexceeding our expectations.”

NEW RICHMOND — That chillyou feel may be the beginningphases of a certain spot in thenetherworld undergoing cli-mate change. If Lucifer dons aparka, maybe it’s because NewRichmond High School will runa spread offense this season.

“The offense has been a totaloverhaul,” understated first-year head football coach JoshStratton said. “I think our offen-sive tempo is pretty good rightnow, especially consideringhow different a system this isthan what they’re used to. Wereally keep the defense of bal-ance. It’sgoing tobehard topre-pare for us.”

Stratton knows of which hespeaks; his team at Lloyd (Ky.)last season had 11 differentplayers score offensive touch-downs.

Still, defense will be crucialfor the Lions. Three quarters ofthe secondary returns, includ-ing seniors Blake Thompsonand Jake Hauke, along with ju-nior Jimmy Snider. At 6-foot-2,210 pounds, senior Evan Brign-er anchors the linebackers. Yetthe biggest strength may be upfront with senior nose guardWill Lytle and end Kenny Book-er.

Senior Levi Simpson returnsat quarterback, energized bythe possibility of throwing theball a lot more than he’s had theopportunity to do in the past.

Seniors Malik Davis andPierce Burnam will be his pri-

marytargets tostart theseason,but keep an eye on sophomorereceiver Austin Torrens. Thespeedy, strong 6-foot-2, 190-pound receiver made the re-gional trackmeet in the 400 and800 as a freshman.

Junior tailback Tyler Ander-son ran for about 700 yards injust five games as a sophomore.He runs behind a veteran offen-sive line that includes centerColeGoodnew, left tackle JacobHurst – whom Stratton calledthe strongest player pound for

pound on the roster – left guardNathan Snider (Jimmy’s broth-er) and 6-foot-3, 290-poundsophomore right tackle TylerSammons.

Stratton said Norwood and“that school in Mt. Orab” – notdeigning to say Western Brown- remain the favorites in theSBC, but he’s not looking thatfar ahead yet.

“I just want to be 1-0,” Strat-ton said. “We have to worryabout Indian Hill first and fore-most.”

MT. WASHINGTON — TheMcNicholas Rockets footballteam has been to the playoffstwo of the last three seasons.Head coachMikeOrlando looksfor more of the same in 2013.

“We want a sustained suc-cess,” he said. “For us a 5-5 yearis a bad year. If we’re not outhere competing for games andtitles, we’re not where we wantto be as a program. It’s not go-ing to be easy.

“It’s not that we’re terriblyyoung, but we have some inex-perience. We have to grow upand become some leaders. Thissenior class has not had a lot ofsuccess on its own. I think theywere 0-for as freshmen anddidn’t have a winning record asJVs. As juniors, they were inthe shadow of last year’s sen-iors. It’s time for them to stepup.”

Senior Bryan Corpuz leadssix returning starters on of-fense. Orlando said the 6-foot-4lineman is a definite collegeprospect.Alsobackup front aresenior guardKent Schaeper, ju-nior center Nate Gorman andjunior guard Will Allgeier. Ju-nior tackle Zach Wood, a trans-fer student, rounds out the line.

Theywill protect a backfieldincluding junior quarterbackLuke Sulken, junior tailbackSean Byrne and senior runningback Dom Gabriele. Receiversinclude seniors Matt Curranand Kevin Schmidt, as well asjunior Ted Tekulve.

“It’s no secret,we’re going totry tomakeourwayrunning thefootball,” Orlando said. “We’regoing to be very up tempo, nohuddle. We want to run a playevery 15 seconds in real timeand keep defenses off balance.But at the end of the day you

have to be able to run the foot-ball and stop the run. As old asthe game is, that’s the key, nomatter what formations yourun.”

Defensively, middle line-backer Elliott Higgins and sen-

ior safetiesAustinVoelkers andDaniel Sandmann are the lonereturning starters. Curran andTanner Cardone play corner-back. Seniors Andrew Hay andJohnny Adams anchor the de-fensive end slots and classmate

Tyler Gumbert plays lineback-er.

A trio of sophomores in line-backer Nick Staderman andends Jacob Cheek and RyanByrne should add depth to theRockets’ 4-3 defense.

WILLIAMSBURG — The Wil-liamsburg Wildcats footballteamenters 2013with a new atti-tude following a 3-7 season and2-2 mark in the Southern Buck-eye Conference that left them inthird place.

“We’ve got a little bit of size,but we want to change it up a lit-tle bit,” said head coach ScottLefker. “Usually teams run aspread to cover for a smallerline. We’re doing it because wewant to get the ball tomore play-ers inmoreways.Thebiggerlineshould give us time to do that.”

The line includes a trio of re-turning seniors in Dalton Smith,Nick Felts andBrad Jones. Theyprotect a veteran quarterback insenior LaneEdmonston and a ju-nior running back Mason Hallwhoranfor1,200yardsasasoph-omore.

The receiving corps includesseniors JordanWright andJaredSpurlock.

(Edmonston) is scary to a lotof teams when he scrambles,”Lefker said. “With our scheme,we want defenses on their heels.They won’t know if he’s going torun or throw. The quarterback,the tailback and all four receiverpositions can run out of ourspread.”

Wright also lines up at defen-sive tackle as he chases the Wil-liamsburg record for careertackles. He is joined up front byjuniors Joe Morgan and BillyCadwallader. Linebackers in-clude Smith and classmates Isa-iah Bradford and Spencer Clow-ery. Junior Austin Horn andEvan Barge man the secondarywith sophomore Kurt Meisberg-er.

A recent scrimmage againstEast Clinton revealed somegoodsigns for theWildcats.

“I like our speed and wescored on defense,” Lefker said.“If you can do that every week,you’re going to win a lot ofgames. I like the attitude andleadership this team has.They’re getting it, working

hard.”Williamsburg has a quirky

Head Coach Joe Harpringexpects the squad to be quick,deep and athletic this year.

“We plan to use our depth tokeep everyone fresh and avoiddragging a bit at the end of theseason,” said Harpring who isbeginninghisninthyearasheadcoachatUCClermont (13thyearoverall coaching at UC Cler-mont). “We have the luxury of asubstantial number of talentedindividuals.”

In spite of some key losses tograduation, etc., the Cougarsarereturningeightqualityplay-

ers and a talented transfer forthe coming campaign. SetterBecca Walton (Mother of Mer-cy) and right-side hitter HaleyWeber (Mariemont) enter theirsenior seasons and will becountedon to lead the squad. Ju-nior outside hitter Kaitlyn Mil-ler (Sycamore) and junior de-fensive specialist CourtneyMaier (Newport Central Catho-lic)will also lendaveteranpres-ence to the team.

Five sophomores will beback with a year of collegiateexperience under their belts –middle hitter Kiley Collins (Go-shen), middle hitter HeatherRowland (Norwood), setterAlex Robb (Amelia), right-sidehitter Shannon Arnold (GlenEste) and outside hitter AmberPeters (Loveland and ThomasMore College).

Four newcomerswill supple-ment the veteran core of theClermont team. Two are true in-coming freshmen – outside hit-ter Amber Lawrence (Felicity-Franklin)anddefensivespecial-ist Samantha Gilbert (FranklinCounty, Ind.). The others are

walk-on defensive specialistTaylor Herrmann (Glen Este)and outside hitter SarahBarrial(Goshen). All four won numer-ous awards during their highschool careers.

The Cougars will face an es-peciallychallengingschedule in2013. In addition to the usualstrongUSCAA,NCAAand inde-pendent opponents, Clermontwill alsomeet a number of high-er level NAIA programs.

“This year we may be facingour toughest schedule ever,”said Harpring. “We want to beprepared toplay thebest in casewe are fortunate enough to re-ceive another post season bid.”

The season will kick off onFriday, Aug. 23, as the CougarshostOhioChristianUniversity –a team selected to the NationalChristianCollegeAthleticAsso-ciation (NCCAA)National Tour-nament in 2012. Game time is 6p.m. in the Student ActivitiesCenter.

SPORTS BRIEFS

CAMPING OUT

The ECC 2013 champion Anderson girls basketball program putson its annual summer camp. Attending the camp were 30-plusgirls ranging from fourth-graders to eighth-graders. The girlswere from Batavia, Bethel and all over Anderson Township.Coach Chris Carletti and his staff had full days of drills, gamesand a whole lot of fun. The girls improved in just a few days.THANKS TO JOHN RAYMOND

NEWTOWN — It’s not quite“The Junction Boys” and BearBryant, but youdohave to crossrailroad tracks to get to MiamiValley Christian Academy’spractice field.

In his fourth year of buildingMVCA’s football program, Rob-ert Vilardo walks the plains ofShort Park in the village ofNewtown, whistle in hand.

“Newtown is awesome withus,” Vilardo said. “They let ususe this whole park. They takecare of it for us. It’s just a greatrelationship between the schooland Newtown.”

He would like to have indoorfacility of some sort, but fornow, a pair of meeting trailersand awalk through thewoods tothe makeshift gridiron willhave to suffice.

Having started MVCA foot-ball in 2010 with 16 kids, nine ofwhom had never played, Vilar-do knows building takes a greatdeal of patience.

In the process of becoming afull-fledged OHSAA competi-tor, MVCA will play similarschools this season. They startwith Finneytown out of the Cin-cinnati Hills League.

“That’s a big game for us,”Vilardo said. “We’ve neverplayed a team at this level.We’re done with all of the non-OHSAAschools.This is ourpro-bation year. It’s is the directionwe’re going.”

In the past, the Lions coulddrawathleteswhoattendedoth-er schools. While it helped theiroverall numbers, outside par-ticipants are a thing of the past.

“If they’re on our team,they’re a student at our school,”Vilardo said.

That said, MVCA’s roster isdown from 35 to 25 kids out of a

school of 90.They’ll scrimmage Lockland

and play in a league featuringRiverview East, Gamble Mon-tessori, Oyler, and CincinnatiCollege Prep Academy

“We feel pretty confident wecancompete,”Vilardosaid. “It’sa good little league for us.There’s some talent in thoseschools.”

While MVCA is predomi-nately a running team, Vilardowas deciding on a quarterbackat presstime between seniorsLayne Cherry, Gavin Carsonandhissophomoreson,BransenVilardo.

“All three of those guys willbe on the field,” Vilardo said.“Whichever one wins the quar-terback position, the other twowillbeon thefieldat receiveror

tight end.”Running the ball for the Li-

ons will be the trio of seniorAlex Dammerman, junior Jor-dan Conklin and sophomoreJames Heaton.

MVCA’s best defender is 5-11, 250-pound Austin Privett.Like most of the squad, he’ll beon the field a lot. Joey Hallbergis also a returning linebacker.

“Everybody has two posi-tions obviously,” Vilardo said.“The biggest thing with us, ob-viously with small numbers, isinjuries. I’ve got to be smartcoaching. We can’t just go outthere and beat each other upand have guys sore on Fridaynight.”

MVCA now plays mainly onFridaysandusesTurpinandAn-derson as their home field.

Howdy Folks,We had a request from

Mary Kelch a while backfor yarn to make hats andscarves for the homelessshelters. There is one inBatavia behind the firehouse. A lady called theother day and brought abig bag of yarn and gaveit to Ruth Ann at the car-diac rehab last Wednes-day.

The ladies sure appre-ciate this donation. Thereis a need for more yarnfor these folks, so if youhave any surplus yarnthese folks will use itwisely.

If youmissed the OhioValley AntiqueMachin-ery show you sure missedone of the best shows in

our area.The oldschoolhouse suregot a lot ofattention.

We sawa ladytaking apicture ofher daugh-ter about 4

years old in one of theseats. There were ladiessetting at the teachersdesk too.

Then there was thegeneral store that wasrun by Earl Pringle, hiswife and daughter. Theyhad sarsaparilla; that issome drink you could getin days gone by. Actuallyit is root beer, but that’s

the name.There was the black-

smith shop that wasdrawing a lot of attention.My dad had a blacksmithshop and would shoehorses.

The sawmill was runby steam engines thefellers that run the sawmill sure knewwhat theywere doing. Some of thelogs were over 10 feetlong and probably 14inches in diameter. Wesaw lots of folks carryingcedar shingles that weremade with a mill that wasused years ago.

They had a veneermachine. This machinewas used years ago.There were several folkscarrying sheets of cedar

that was something folkshad never seen especiallyworking.

There was a younglady that was grindingcorn for cornmeal this galknewwhat she was doing.Her father-in-law RogerNeal had this mill andseveral old cars andtrucks. Now she and herhusband have the mill.

We got to see thesteam engines plowing.One plowed with a fivebottom plow and the oth-er had four bottom plow.They said the horseswould be there on Sat-urday but we didn’t getback there to see them.The feller that has thehorses is Clint Evans.

When I was youngmy

Dad had a Farmall 12. Mybrother and I would plowwith the horses. Mybrother would drive and Iheld the plow.

There were over 10steam engines there. Italked to some of thefolks, one was a Bakeroperated by a young fell-er age 23. This engineweighed 12 tons. I thinkthey used the Baker en-gine to run the sawmillthen they switched andused a Case steam engine.There were three Frickengines that were steamand three oil pull tractors.There were lots of differ-ent brands of tractors.

Now this event wouldnot be as good as it is ifthe homemade ice cream

folks were not there. TheMannings have beenthere for years. Theyhave two freezers thatmake five gallons eachtime. The freezers arerun by two hit andmissold engines. When wewere there waiting forsome to get finishedMr.andMrs. Manning saidthese two freezers made37 batches.

Start your week bygoing to the House ofworship of your choiceand praise the Good Lord.God Bless All. More Lat-er.

George Rooks, a retired parkranger, served for 28 yearswith the last five as managerof East Fork State Park.

Lots to see at the Ohio Valley Antique Machinery Show
